Bracknell, UK – 7th November, 2012 - Who is
El Presidente? Why, he's whoever you want him to be, as this newly
released video from
Tropico 4 Gold Edition shows! In T
ropico 4 Gold Edition, players will be able to do
a lot more than simply play dress up with their island-leader
avatar, they will craft custom back-stories, which affect how El
Presidente is perceived on the world stage. Born with a silver
spoon in his mouth? A "woman of the people?"

Your vision of El Presidente is yours to create in
Tropico 4 Gold Edition, the city-building
compilation for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment
system from Microsoft and Windows PC that contains both the
original
Tropico 4 and the 'Modern Times' expansion.

options in
Tropico 4 Gold Edition, which will be released on
9th November in the UK and Export territories.

Tropico 4 Gold Edition is the ultimate city
building experience, including:
Tropico 4 and the 'Modern Times' expansion. As the
president of a tiny Caribbean island, it’s up to you to lead
your country to greatness! Will you be a benevolent and
tolerant leader, or a power-mad dictator? Will your economy
rely on tourism, farming, big business or cheap sweatshops?
The decisions you make will shape the future of your island, and
more importantly, the size of your off-shore bank account.

Features of
Tropico 4 Gold Edition:

Become the heroic leader, or a despicable despot as your
customised El Presidente avatar makes decisions for the good or ill
of the people

missions including the new 'Modern Times' campaign
